Hmm, I’d love to know how many tattoos our readers/bloggers have
and if they don’t, do they want one and of what?

Not a single one … and most people who know me find this
surprising. It’s not that I have anything against them; on the contrary I think
they are awesome.

So why don’t I have any? Because I don’t have anything
significant that I want to tattoo … for me a tattoo should have meaning. Also,
the mr has double standards; he does not want me to get one (despite his
several).

Both my kids love watching LA Ink and NY Ink etc … so Cat once
asked me if I didn’t love them, cause if I loved them I would have their faces
tattooed on my back.She also told me
that as soon as she’s old enough she is going to get a full sleeve done with
butterflies and flowers and hearts and her dad’s face.

Oh good question and a hard one cause Himself is super good when
it comes to giving presents!

Honestly, I have gotten so many great things and every time he comes back from a business trips he brings back something. My most recent big present which was fantastic was a
string of pearls (12th wedding anniversary) …

Hey, this was my question.Ok let’s see if I can remember this far back.

I heard about Himself when I was about 10 years old. I was on a
church camp with some kids who went to school with him and his aunt and her
husband were councilors.

We finally met when I was 13. I was in boarding school & he
came to visit his best friend whose dad was a teacher at my school.

I very clearly remember not liking him.I thought he was full of himself!Still is …

We saw quite a bit of each other over the next 5 years. He would
either come visit his friend, or I would go with my best friend to visit his
parents (her parents and his parents were very good friends). So we spent a lot
of time hanging out.

When I left to go au pair in Germany in 1997 he came to say good
bye at the airport, my aunt said to my mom ‘ Wish Jo could date a nice boy like
him’.

Fast forward 6 months … I got back to South Africa, he had broken up with
his long term girlfriend. Heard from my brother that I was back in the country,
phoned to say ‘Hello’ and …. we were married on the 21st of March
2000. At our wedding his uncle made a toast and said that when he met me at
that camp way back, he thought we would be a good match.

What I'm reading on the train

Who am I?

I am another working mom who is trying to do it all without having to do too much cleaning but who still dreams of living in a house fit for a magazine. All of this while trying to stay sane which can be hard when you’re not a dog person but somehow ended up having 3 dogs and a son who tells you that he loves the dogs more than what he loves you.. But I’ll tell you I'm dreaming of becoming a lady of leisure who will have time to cook healthy meals (which my family will eat), do some DIY, travel and read ... can you blame me? - Go on admit it you would like to be one too!
